30-Day Horror Challenge

From April 11, 2011 to May 10, 2011, Cinefessions (formerly The Movie Files) partook in a 30-day horror meme that was created by Dollar Bin Horror writer Brandon Sites (operator of Big Daddy Horror Reviews).  During this challenge, I (Branden) listed 30 of my favorite (or least favorite) horror films in different categories.  Each day was followed by a small write-up on “why” I chose that film.  These are not brilliant pieces of film criticism, but simply my reasoning for loving (or disliking) each particular film.

In case you missed any day, or just wanted to recap what my favorites are, I have listed all 30-days below.  Feel free to comment and add any and all of your favorites to the list so that I can catch up on some I may have missed.
